Vin Rock Says Treach Dictates Naughty By Nature's Future

Vin Rock says that Naughty By Nature’s performance at the Masters of Ceremony Hip Hop Reunion concert at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in Los Angeles last month was among the final ones it appears the group will perform together.

“This is one of our last few dates based on Treach’s mandate,” Vin Rock says during an exclusive interview with HipHopDX that debuted in the DX Daily today (August 12). “He doesn’t want to tour with me anymore. You’ll see attempted configurations, [him] out there by himself, some with Kay [Gee, Naughty By Nature’s third member] and let’s see how it works…This is beyond us. Naughty By Nature is like Frankenstein. You can’t control it. We put this energy out there and the people embraced it. It’s not just ours anymore. It’s for the people, so the people have the ultimate say.”

“It’s crazy, man,” Vin Rock says. “The energy is crazy. It’s really disrespectful to the fans, man. But I’m in pocket, man. I’m a professional and I’ma do my best to keep this brand together and give the people what they want. There’s no fraction in this thing.”
